 Found this on wood for drying in my garden, Southern Norway on August 27. Is it possible to identify this species?

 The only Drosophilinae I can think of with a dark spot at the tip of R2+3 is Drosophila suzukii.

 Chymomyza fuscimana. Btw., dark spot at the wing tip occurs also in some Scaptomyza and in more spp. of D. (Sophophora).
